Bug preventing validationRegex to work for European License Plate Scanner

[OCR] potential crashes with Universal Serial Number, Container, and other scanners

ALScanPluginConfig is removed: instead directly access pluginConfig from within ALScanViewPluginConfig rather than through its scanPluginConfig

The plugin config properties named scanOption, found in ALUniversalIDField, ALVehicleRegistrationCertificateField, and ALJapaneseLandingPermissionConfigFieldOption are now initialized based on more-intuitive string values (i.e. "mandatory", "optional", "disabled", "default" rather than 0, 1, 2, and 3)

Structure of how scanning use-cases are constructed through JSON
